I said this when he bought Bond and the Washington Post.
Bezos is basically Elliot Carver from Tomorrow Never Dies: billionaire media mogul who manipulates the news to his own ends.
Slight tangent, but Elon Musk is even more like Hugo Drax of Moonraker: foreign-born billionaire who owns a rocket company and is obsessed with repopulating the earth with his own offspring.
This is why I think Tomorrow Never Dies is one of the most underrated films in the franchise.
Agreed. It’s a really creative story.
Who dat
Jeff Besos
Doctor Evil, but unfunny.
I had him as more of a Lex Luthor.
Larry Ellison feels like more of a Bond Villain.
Mark Zuckerberg could work as some kind of 80s/90s action movie baddie. I know a good analog is out there, but the best I can come up with is the VP from Robocop or the various evil CEOs from Tron.
Elon Musk feels like a Captain Planet villain.
Lex Luthor as a bond villain could work
Older versions of him work. The newer versions tend to be Wizard in a Gundam.
You only had him as Lex Luthor because he’s bald
There was a time when all past movie Bonds were still alive. It would have been a great opportunity to make them the heads of SPECTRE and dramatically reshape the franchise.
